Would it be better for parse analysis to explicitly NULL out this
field once it's done looking at it? Carrying unmaintained pieces
of an expression tree around seems both inefficient and prone to
future failures of this same ilk. The further the raw_expr gets
out of step with current reality, the worse the hazards.
